| Bear's Den – Stubborn Beast Lyrics | 10 years ago |
|
@[tobiin:6485] I always pictured it (at least based on the chorus) about someone who has developed Alzheimer's disease, and that the "stubborn beast" is the disease itself. She's written all these letters to people she cares about before the onset of her disease, and reading them with her current condition, the connections she'd made with these apparently important people have vanished. She recognizes her own writing, but can't for the life of her remember who they're for. For the pictures filled with strangers, I imagined also her family, with meaningful expressions she feels like she recognizes in some way, but doesn't. They way they're "always looking down" on her, she feels as if they blame her for this condition she can't control, and she has no idea why. I think the verses better support your interpretation, though. |
